The Bardhaman to Kolkata Bus Service introduced by South Bengal State Transport Corporation (SBSTC) has proved itself as the most convenient, affordable and above all hazard-free way to connect Bardhaman (formerly known as Burdwan) with Kolkata.
Even few years ago the only swift way to reach Kolkata was the railways only; Bardhaman station is the most important junction next to Howrah. Barddhaman is situated on the very busy and important line that is joining the Howrah and New Delhi Railway stations. Thus there are so many express and super fast trains available to reach Howrah. Beside those trains Bardhaman also enjoys the facility of having local EMU trains which join Barddhaman and Howrah via two different railway tracks viz. Chord line(via Dankuni, 95 Km) and Main line(Via Bandel, 107 Km). The local fare is Rs.25, mail/express/intercity fare is Rs.45 and the superfast fare is Rs. 65.
Instead of availability of such a plenty of trains, now-a-days people are avoiding the railway service only to avoid the rush and the hazards of Howrah Station. In the weekdays it becomes almost impossible to purchase a ticket from the ticket-counters in Howrah. Seat availability is also a matter of luck. The fare of SBSTC bus to Esplanade (also called Dharmatala) is Rs. 75(A.C. Rs. 170) and that is to Salt Lake(also called Korunamoyee) is Rs. 80. That may be quite higher than the train fare, but still it is affordable.
Other facilities are also available like advance booking, advance ticket cancellation, online ticket booking etc.
Recently by the orders of Burdwan Municipality, all the buses from 7:30 AM up to 8:30 PM will not be allowed to move through the city and hence, they ply through the NH2. Here the buses which go through the city has been marked bold.
